Customer Success Story
Building a Secure Foundation for Multitenant Data Center Services
A cloud-grade Juniper solution in multiple Iron Mountain locations serves a growing roster of highly regulated customers with new levels of security, resilience, and scalability.
Serving 230,000 organizations that include 95 percent of the Fortune 1000, Iron Mountain delivers data center services to highly regulated businesses. With a fast-growing clientele, the company installed a Juniper cloud-grade network so it could scale quickly with no security or uptime compromises.
Business Challenge
With some of the world’s most demanding customers, Iron Mountain’s network requirements are stringent. Supporting its quickly expanding data center services business required a cloud-ready foundation that could scale easily but also meet the privacy and compliance requirements of its clientele.
Technology Solution
Juniper cloud-grade network solutions are at work in several Iron Mountain sites. MX Series Edge Routers form an IP/MPLS backbone and data center core, over which full-mesh Layer 2 VPNs partition customer networks for privacy. EX Series Switches connect over a 128-Gbps backplane, and SRX Series Firewalls securely connect customer sites and Iron Mountain offices.
Business Results
Iron Mountain now has the flexibility of expanding its multitenant services where it sees fit and has found it easier to detect intrusions, enforce policies, and proactively mitigate threats. Having the Junos operating system power all the equipment makes managing the network consistent and easier for operations staff.
